Though he tried to keep [i]some[/i] distance. If the Shinx saw him first, it would almost certainly flee. He didn't want to make anybody upset. He'd probably never hear the end of it from the young girl. He'd try to stay hidden as much as he could. Well, about as hidden as a big red bird in a forest could be. He decided to stick close to a nearby tree, and stay close to the ground and watch from there. His instincts were telling him to fight, but he knew he needed to be patient. Isaac instinctively looked behind him as he saw Leo and his Nidoran slip off into the forest. Great. Exactly what he needed. An inexperienced trainer running headfirst into who knows what. Especially this kid. A Hoppip could probably kick his ass. At least this wasn't Mt. Mortar. Even he still gets a little lost there. After a brief moment of consideration, Isaac followed after Leo. Kick could mostly take care of himself, and the girl too, if need be. [color=eebc27]"Where the hell are you going?"[/color] Isaac hissed. [color=eebc27] You'll get lost out in those woods real fast."[/color] He looked over to see the Nidoran from before seemingly searching for something. Food? Battle? Isaac sighed as he regained his composure, motioning for Leo to continue following his pokemon. [color=eebc27]"Look, I don't mind if you do some exploring, but you've gotta tell me when you're going off the beaten path. A fledgling like you can get seriously hurt or lost out here, alright? What is it you're even looking for?"[/color]
